Liam's Super Groovy Robot Room

We finished the nursery this weekend! We tried to stay clear of a "theme," but looks like it might be "robots." Everything centers around three pictures that Brian created - 3 Friendly Robots! Brian sketched the pictures, scanned them into the computer and then finished them up in Illustrator. I served as the art director and had final approval (I really did make a change to the backgrounds that made a difference!). The robots were created after I picked the Skip Hop Mod Dot bedding - we matched the two. I love the modern glider and simple crib. The mobile is from Etsy and mom got that for us. I found the robot lamp at Urban Outfitters and the curtains are from IKEA. We bought a small, flat screen tv for the room in anticipation of 2:00 a.m. feedings. We also kept the queen-sized bed in the room. Our house is a two-bedroom and one of us doesn't always sleep very well (hey, is it 2:11 am right now!?) so we thought it would be very important at the beginning to still have another place to sleep. The only thing we gave up by keeping the bed is a changing table. We are going to create a changing station either on the bathroom counter top (something about changing shitty diapers IN the bathroom is very appealing to me) or on the dresser in our room (obviously this would just be at the beginning) . . .
